Young Master Damien's Pet

Chapter 618 Morgueatory- Part 2



"Why does the lady need to take a look?" Murkh asked, his sense of being an experimentalist looking at the girl curiously if she was special. He looked into her green eyes that looked back at him right now.

Damien turned to Damien to say, "He asks why do you want to see them."

Penny\'s eyes darted from Damien back to Murkh, "I have been reading some of the books in the church and there was a case which Damien brought up. He spoke about a body that had markings on the skin. Markings on the inside of the body," she said being truthful about what she wanted.

For a good few seconds, Murkh didn\'t reply to her and only stared, which made her wonder if he was not going to let her in. Of course, Damien could take her there at any point in time when the doctor wasn\'t available but it would be good to get some pointers on what the man found out.

"Being curious is always good. Give me a moment to lock the cabins. There has been a thief that has been stealing my potions. I have been monitoring the room and have barely left it but there\'s always something lesser than what is there here," said Murkh, walking around to the cabin and pulling out its door where Penny caught sight of the number of potions that was in there. They were the similar kind of potions that were there in the secret room of the church as well as in Delcrov\'s mansion, but mostly similar to what was there in Valeria.

Unable to hold herself, she asked him, "Where did you get those potions from?"

"A fellow councilman gave it to me as a gift hoping it would help me out," answered Murkh. While the man was locking the cabinets, Penny turned to look at Damien and mouthed the name \'Creed\' to have him a nod.

The councilman who had died had not only stolen books from Lady Isabell but had gone as far as to steal her potions. It made her wonder how he did it. To step in and out of the highly secure place where a person would be caught easily at least by the butler, she wondered if there was a story to dig in there.

"He just handed it to me and I had to figure it out on what it was. Told that he found it in the black witch\'s lair," Murkh said, he turned to start to lead the way which was on the lower floor to where they stood right now.

The sun had risen up in the sky and for once, the clouds didn\'t hover too much in front of the sun letting its light and heat spread through the atmosphere. And even if thought there was light outside, the building they were walking in, going down was cold and dark.

Penny didn\'t miss the stench of the blood which was rotten and old. It made her frown as they made their way past the cell rooms to stand in front of an iron door. Murkh, pulled out the bunch of keys from his pocket and unlocked the door, pus.h.i.+ng it so that the two people behind him could step inside.

She looked at the transparent, gla.s.s cylinders that were placed upright, each of the cylinders holding one dead body that floated in the liquid that was filled inside it.

Murkh went to the body she had been familiar with the last time she had been here. The little spark of oddity she had felt when she had touched the surface of the gla.s.s when she had tried to get a better look at the person.

The man was lean and boney who was in the cylinder. When Murkh pushed a b.u.t.ton below the cylinder,? the cylinder began to move such that it positioned to sleep horizontally. The liquid that was in there started to drain out and the front top of the gla.s.s open to let a person be able to touch the dead body.

"How would you like it? Opened on the plate or in here?"

Damien was the one to answer, "Opened on the place. We would like to see his skin."

"Very well," Murkh brought the cadaver bed, putting the dead man on it and taking him to another room. Both Damien and Penny followed him, and she saw stood next to Damien keeping straight face when the vampire doctor made a cut on the man\'s frontal section with a small knife and then used his hands to pull out the skin that covered the bones with little to no meat.

Penny\'s eyes stared at the skin which was pulled out where one could see the other side of the skin which had markings. It was written in a similar style as written in the church that Lady Isabell used to work.

"This is the incantation spells," she whispered, her eyes taking in the spells which she was already familiar with. No doubt, her body would be similar to this person, "Is there a way to find out who he is?"

"The case was closed before it even started. There is nothing mentioned about this person, if it were, the body would not be here right now in Murkh\'s collection," Damien informed her.

Penny\'s hand slowly moved to the man\'s head and when it made contact she felt the darkness jolt her again that had her quickly retrieve her hand back, "It isn\'t safe to keep the body here. It needs to be burnt," there was no telling if one of the black witches would find out that there were spells available on this dead man which until a few days had been residing only in the cookbooks and this man who Murkh had stored in his?morgueatory.

But the vampire doctor wasn\'t pleased to hear it. This was the only body that had markings like this, "The body is going to stay here and is going nowhere."
